AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Direct final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking direct
final action to approve three state implementation plan (SIP) revisions
submitted by the State of Oregon Department of Environmental Quality
(Oregon or ODEQ) and a specific portion of a fourth SIP submittal
identified in a supplementary letter. These SIP submittals primarily
include rule amendments related to control measures for volatile
organic compounds from gasoline dispensing facilities in the Portland-
Vancouver, Medford-Ashland, and Salem-Keizer Area Transportation Study
air quality management areas, as well as all of Clackamas, Multnomah,
and Washington counties. The EPA received the SIP submittals from the
ODEQ on February 5, 2009, November 1, 2010, May 25, 2011, and April 20,
2015, and the supplementary letter on September 18, 2015. The EPA is
approving the SIP submittals because they are consistent with the
requirements of the Clean Air Act (Act or CAA).
DATES: This rule is effective on December 28, 2015, without further
notice, unless the EPA receives adverse comment by November 27, 2015.
If the EPA receives adverse comment, we will publish a timely
withdrawal in the Federal Register informing the public that the rule
will not take effect.

I. Introduction
Section 110 of the CAA requires states to develop and submit to the
EPA SIPs to ensure that state air quality meets National Ambient Air
Quality Standards (NAAQS). Each federally-approved SIP protects air
quality primarily by addressing air pollution at its point of origin
through air pollution regulations and control strategies. The EPA-
approved SIP provisions and control strategies are federally
enforceable. States revise the SIP as needed and submit revisions to
the EPA for review and approval.
II. Background
This action primarily addresses Oregon's SIP submittals dated
February 5, 2009, November 1, 2010, and May 25, 2011. These submittals
include amendments to rules that control volatile organic compound
(VOC) emissions from gasoline dispensing facilities in the Air Quality
Management Areas (AQMAs) of Portland-Vancouver (which includes portions
of Clackamas, Multnomah, and Washington counties), Medford-Ashland, and
Salem-Keizer Area Transportation Study (SKATS), as well as all of
Clackamas, Multnomah, and Washington counties. The VOC rules were
previously approved into the Oregon SIP to address Reasonably Available
Control Technology (RACT) requirements for ozone nonattainment areas.
(See for example 45 FR 42265, June 24, 1980). The VOC RACT rules
support continued attainment and maintenance of the ozone NAAQS. They
address emissions during the delivery of gasoline from gasoline cargo
tank trucks to gasoline dispensing facility storage tanks as well as
the emissions during the refueling of individual vehicles at gasoline
dispensing facilities. During delivery, the emission controls generally
include submerged fill pipes and stage I vapor balance systems. Stage I
vapor balance systems capture vapors and return them to the gasoline
cargo tank truck to keep the vapors from being emitted to the air.
During the refueling of individual vehicles, special fuel dispensing
nozzles at the pump (known as ``stage II'') capture vapors and direct
them into the gasoline dispensing facility storage tanks.
In general, the February 5, 2009 submittal amended the VOC rules to
consolidate them with Oregon's then newly adopted rules that
implemented the Federal National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for gasoline dispensing facilities, (40 CFR part
63, subpart CCCCCC) (gasoline dispensing facility NESHAP). The effect
of Oregon's rule amendments was to incorporate the substantive stage I
VOC RACT rule requirements for gasoline dispensing facilities in Oregon
Administrative Rules (OAR) 340 division 232 ``Emission Standards for
VOC Point Sources'' and division 242 ``Rules Applicable to the Portland
Area'' into division 244 ``Oregon Federal Hazardous Air Pollutant
Program,'' and to incorporate the permitting requirements for these
facilities into division 216 ``Air Contaminant Discharge Permits.'' The
November 1, 2010 and May 25, 2011 submittals made additional amendments
to the rules for gasoline dispensing facilities. These three submittals
also include minor amendments to other rules in divisions 200 ``State
of Oregon Clean Air Act Implementation Plan,'' 209 ``Public Notice
Categories and Timing,'' and 210 ``Registration in General''.
The April 20, 2015 submittal consists of comprehensive revisions to
the ODEQ's air permitting and other air rules, including revisions to
the rules for gasoline dispensing facilities in divisions 242 and 244.
In a September 18, 2015 supplementary letter, the ODEQ requested that
the EPA approve specific division 242 and 244 rules to ensure the most
current version of the division 242 and 244 rules for gasoline
dispensing facilities be approved into the SIP. Therefore, in this
action, we are reviewing and acting only on the division 242 and 244
rule amendments in the April 20, 2015 submittal that were identified in
the supplementary letter. We are not reviewing or acting on any other
portion of the April 20, 2015 submittal at this time, but will address
the remainder of that submittal in a future action. In addition, the
ODEQ requested that the EPA approve the identified division 244 rules
for gasoline dispensing facilities that replaced OAR 340-232-0070 and
OAR 340-242-0520 in the February 5, 2009 submittal only to the extent
they apply to sources in the Portland-Vancouver, Medford-Ashland, and
SKATS AQMAs, as well as all of Clackamas, Multnomah, and Washington
counties.
III. The EPA's Evaluation
In the February 5, 2009 submittal, the ODEQ repealed the SIP-
approved rule OAR 340-232-0070 that applied to gasoline dispensing
facilities in the Portland-Vancouver, Medford-Ashland, and SKATS AQMAs.
The ODEQ also removed references to stage I vapor balance systems from
the SIP-approved rules OAR 340-242-0500 and -0520, which applied to
gasoline dispensing facilities in Clackamas, Multnomah and Washington
counties, but retained the stage II vapor collection system
requirements in those rules. The stage I vapor balance requirements
contained in OAR 340-232-0070, OAR 340-242-0500 and OAR 340-242-0520
were added to sections of new rules in division 244 (-0030, -0234, -
0238, -0240, -0242, and -0244) and to amended sections of existing
rules in division 216 (-0020, including tables 1 and 2, -0040, and -
0060). The ODEQ made further amendments to the rules for gasoline
dispensing facilities in the subsequent submittals, as explained in
section II.
In addition to the VOC RACT gasoline dispensing facility rule
amendments, the SIP submittals also include amendments to the following
rules: OAR 340-200-0040, 340-209-0030, 340-210-0100, 340-210-0110, 340-
210-0120, 340-216-0062, and 340-244-0020. A summary discussion of the
rule amendments is provided below. A table that identifies which new
rules address
[[Page 65657]]
the SIP-approved gasoline dispensing facility provisions is included in
the docket for this action.
A. Emission Control Requirements
As in the SIP-approved rules, the amended rules in OAR 340
divisions 244 and 216 continue to apply to the delivery of gasoline to
a gasoline dispensing facility storage tank, require submerged filling
and have specific piping requirements. The amended rules exempt all
gasoline storage tanks with a capacity of less than 250 gallons from
the submerged fill requirements. For tanks installed on or before
October 14, 1999, this is more stringent than the SIP-approved rules
which exempted tanks with a capacity of 1,500 gallons or less. However,
the SIP-approved rules required submerged fill for all tanks installed
after October 14, 1999. Thus, for those tanks with a capacity less than
250 gallons, the amended rules are less stringent. The ODEQ provided
emissions estimates for these small tanks exempt from the submerged
fill requirements under the amended rules and explained that, in
general, such sources use the gasoline for their own equipment (e.g.,
golf courses to fuel golf carts or a facility that has a gasoline
powered forklift) rather than for resale, and that not many tanks are
under this size threshold. The ODEQ estimates increases in VOC
emissions in the AQMAs from this minor exemption to be 55 pounds, or
0.027 tons, per year.
The vapor balance system requirements in the amended rules are
similar to the SIP-approved rules, including requirements that
equipment be vapor tight, maintained in good working order, and
properly connected. Both the amended and the SIP-approved rules exempt
tanks with floating roofs from the vapor balance system requirements.
Similar to the SIP-approved rule, the amended rules require that vapor
balance systems meet certain specifications and demonstrate compliance.
The amended rules cite more recently adopted test methods for
compliance than the SIP-approved test methods. In addition, the new
rules require a compliance demonstration every three years after the
initial compliance demonstration for gasoline dispensing facilities
with a monthly throughput of 100,000 gallons of gasoline or more. This
is more stringent than the SIP-approved rule. In the Portland-
Vancouver, Medford-Ashland, and SKATS AQMAs, the amended rules continue
to exempt gasoline storage tanks that have a capacity of 1,500 gallons
or less from the vapor balance system requirements. However, in
Clackamas, Multnomah, and Washington counties, the requirements for
vapor balance systems are slightly amended. In these counties, the SIP-
approved rules required a vapor balance system for all tanks if the
gasoline dispensing facility had an annual throughput of 120,000
gallons of gasoline or more regardless of the storage capacity of the
tank. The amended rules exempt gasoline storage tanks that have a
capacity less than 250 gallons from the vapor balance system
requirements. The EPA does not consider this to be a relaxation of the
SIP-approved rules because gasoline dispensing facilities that have an
annual throughput of 120,000 gallons of gasoline or more would be
expected to have storage tanks that are larger than 250 gallons.
The amended rules do not specify that training and written
instructions be provided to the operators of gasoline dispensing
facilities and gasoline transport vehicles as in the SIP-approved
rules. The management practices for gasoline dispensing facilities and
cargo tanks included in OAR 340-244-0242 tables 2 and 3 provide a
similar level of assurance, however, that equipment is operated
properly. In addition, the new rules for gasoline dispensing facilities
in division 244 also include other requirements that are not currently
in the SIP but are based on the requirements of the gasoline dispensing
facility NESHAP. These include a specific timeframe for demonstrating
initial compliance with the vapor balance system, demonstrating monthly
throughput, general duties to minimize emissions, notifications,
recordkeeping, and reporting. These requirements are consistent with
the gasoline dispensing facility NESHAP and will either reduce VOC
emissions or enhance the enforceability of VOC SIP requirements for
gasoline dispensing facilities. Thus, while a few aspects of the
amended requirements for gasoline dispensing facilities are less
stringent than in the existing SIP, given the overall strengthening of
the requirements for gasoline dispensing facilities in the identified
areas under the amended rules, the EPA finds that the revisions to the
requirements for gasoline dispensing facilities in the Portland-
Vancouver, Medford-Ashland, and SKATS AQMAs and in Clackamas,
Multnomah, and Washington counties will not interfere with any
applicable requirement concerning attainment or maintenance of the
NAAQS or any other applicable CAA requirements. The EPA is therefore
approving these requirements for the Portland-Vancouver, Medford-
Ashland, and SKATS AQMAs as well as all of Clackamas, Multnomah, and
Washington counties.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The ODEQ has excluded from its submittal the following
provisions in the emissions standards for gasoline dispensing
facilities in division 244 that do not correspond to current SIP
requirements for gasoline dispensing facilities or to provisions in
the gasoline dispensing facility NESHAP: OAR 340-244-0238(1)(a) and
(2)(c), 340-244-0240(1)(b) and (c), and 340-244-0242 (4)(c) and (d).
The ODEQ has also requested that the EPA approve the definitions in
OAR 340-244-0030 only to the extent needed to implement the
requirements for gasoline dispensing facilities in the division 244
requirements approved into the SIP.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
B. Permitting Rules
The General Air Contaminant Discharge Permits (ACDPs) rules in the
amended OAR division 216 have replaced the vapor balance system (stage
I) and stage II vapor collection permit requirements in the SIP-
approved rules. The EPA has approved the submitted amendments to
division 216 (See 76 FR 80747, December 27, 2011). Like the SIP-
approved rules, the amended rules include equivalent \2\ permitting
requirements, permitting fees, and a 10 year limit on the permit. Other
administrative requirements, however, such as the requirement to notify
the ODEQ of a change of ownership, the date for submitting renewal
applications, and the requirement to keep a copy of the permit on site
at the facility, are included in the SIP-approved rule, but are not
included in the ODEQ's amended permit provisions for gasoline
dispensing facilities. The EPA notes that the ODEQ includes these types
of provisions in its general permit for gasoline dispensing facilities.
Given the administrative nature of such requirements, the EPA concludes
that the revisions to the permitting requirements for gasoline
dispensing facilities will not interfere with any applicable
requirement concerning attainment or maintenance of the NAAQS or any
other applicable CAA requirements.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ In the amended rules, stage I and stage II permits are
required for gasoline dispensing facilities with a monthly
throughput of 10,000 gallons of gasoline or more. We consider this
requirement to be essentially equivalent to the SIP-approved rule,
which (a) required vapor balance systems (stage I) and permits for
gasoline dispensing facilities with greater than 1,500 gallon
capacity as explained in our May 10, 2000 action (65 FR 29956), and
(b) required stage II systems and permits for gasoline dispensing
facilities (subject to those requirements in OAR 340-242-0520) with
an annual throughput exceeding 600,000 gallons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
C. Rule Amendments that the EPA is Not Approving
The February 5, 2009, November 1, 2010, and May 25, 2011 submittals
also include amendments to other rules that
[[Page 65658]]
we are not approving in this action. The division 210 ``Registration in
General'' rules have been superseded by a more recent submittal and
have been approved by the EPA (See 78 FR 37124, June 20, 2013). The
April 20, 2015 submittal superseded OAR 340-209-0030 and OAR 340-216-
0062, and we will address them in a future action. We are also not
approving OAR 340-244-0020, which was included in the February 5, 2009
submittal, because this rule addresses the authority of Lane Regional
Air Protection Agency (LRAPA) to implement requirements within its
jurisdiction, and LRAPA does not have jurisdiction in the geographic
areas covered by this SIP approval. Finally, OAR 340-200-0040 describes
the State's procedures for adopting its SIP and references all of the
state air regulations that have been adopted by the ODEQ for approval
into the SIP (as a matter of state law), whether or not they have yet
been submitted to or approved by the EPA. The EPA is not approving the
revisions to this provision in these SIP submittals because the
federally-approved SIP consists only of regulations and other
requirements that have been submitted by the ODEQ and approved by the
EPA.
IV. Final Action
The EPA is taking the following action on the amendments to OAR
Chapter 340 that were included in the February 5, 2009, November 1,
2010, and May 25, 2011 submittals and the division 242 and 244 rules in
the April 20, 2015 submittal that were identified by the ODEQ for our
review in the September 18, 2015 supplementary letter. We are acting on
the most recent version of the rules in the submittal identified in
parentheses below. Further action on the earlier adopted versions of
these rules included in the submittals is not required because they are
no longer in effect and have been superseded by the most recent
submittal.
We are approving the following rule amendments: OAR 340-232-0070
(repeal) (February 5, 2009 submittal); OAR 340-242-0500, -0510, -0520
(April 20, 2015 submittal as identified in the September 18, 2015
supplementary letter); \3\ OAR 340-244-0030,\4\ -0232, -0234, -0236, -
0238 (except (1)(a) and (2)(c)),\5\ -0239, -0240, -0242 (including
tables 2 and 3), -0244 (except (1)(b) and (c)),\6\ -0246, -0248 (except
(4)(c) and (d)),\7\ -0250 (April 20, 2015 submittal as identified in
the September 18, 2015 supplementary letter); and OAR 340-244-0252
(February 5, 2009 submittal). At the ODEQ's request, the EPA is
approving the identified requirements in division 244 only for sources
in the Portland-Vancouver, Medford-Ashland, and SKATS AQMAs as well as
all of Clackamas, Multnomah, and Washington counties. The EPA notes
that, although Oregon's rules for gasoline dispensing facilities also
regulate emissions of hazardous air pollutants, the EPA is approving
these provisions for the purpose of regulating VOC emissions from these
facilities. The EPA's authority to approve SIPs extends to provisions
related to attainment and maintenance of the NAAQS and carrying out
other specific requirements of section 110 of the CAA.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ By its terms, division 242 applies only in Clackamas,
Multnomah, and Washington Counties.
\4\ As discussed above, the ODEQ has requested that the EPA
approve the definitions in OAR 340-244-0030 only to the extent
needed to implement the requirements for gasoline dispensing
facilities in division 244 that are approved into the SIP.
\5\ As discussed above, the ODEQ has excluded OAR 240-244-
0238(1)(a) and (2)(c) from its submittal.
\6\ As discussed above, the ODEQ has excluded OAR 340-244-
0240(1)(b) and (c) from its submittal.
\7\ As discussed above, the ODEQ has excluded OAR 340-244-
0242(4)(c) and (d) from its submittal.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As discussed above, we are not approving OAR 340-200-0040 (May 25,
2011); OAR 340-209-0030, OAR 340-210-0100, -0110, -0120, and OAR 340-
216-0062, -0064 (November 1, 2010 submittal); OAR 340-216-0020, -0060
(May 25, 2011); or OAR 340-244-0020 (February 5, 2009 submittal).
V. Incorporation by Reference
In this rule, the EPA is approving regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, the EPA is incorporating by reference the Oregon regulations (OAR
Chapter 340) described in the amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth
below. The EPA has made, and will continue to make, these documents
generally available electronically through www.regulations.gov and/or
in hard copy at the appropriate EPA office (see the ADDRESSES section
of this preamble for more information).
VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the CAA and applicable
Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, the EPA's role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. Accordingly, this
action merely approves state law as meeting Federal requirements and
does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by state
law. For that reason, this action:
Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21,
2011);
does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because this action does not involve technical standard; and
does not provide the EPA with the discretionary authority
to address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or
environmental effects, using practicable and legally permissible
methods, under Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
The SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian reservation land or
in any other area where the EPA or an Indian tribe has demonstrated
that a tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian country, the
rule does not have tribal implications and will not impose substantial
direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law as specified
by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000).
The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the
[[Page 65659]]
Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. The EPA
will submit a report containing this action and other required
information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and
the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of
the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot take effect until
60 days after it is published in the Federal Register. This action is
not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
Under section 307(b)(1) of the CAA, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by December 28, 2015. Filing a petition for
reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect
the finality of this action for the purposes of judicial review nor
does it extend the time within which a petition for judicial review may
be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such rule or
action. Parties with objections to this direct final rule are
encouraged to file a comment in response to the parallel notice of
proposed rulemaking for this action published in the proposed rules
section of today's Federal Register, rather than file an immediate
petition for judicial review of this direct final rule, so that the EPA
can withdraw this direct final rule and address the comment in the
proposed rulemaking. This action may not be challenged later in
proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)
